Fractions and Time #1

Your mom just told you to go to bed because it is half past 8. What time is it? Why did she use the words: half past?

Can you give me another way to write half past?

Remember to use capitals and complete sentences.

    It is referred to half past because as some of you said, half of the hour has already passed. We connect it to the fraction 1/2.
